Sadly I haven’t been up the Poudre as much as I should recently. Didn’t make it up Tuesday night, but the report from friends hitting up the Narrows was ~1.2. Hard to believe it’s that good in mid-September. Don’t put them boats away yet

Heard someone on the Buzz was lookin’ for the Rock Report. Looks like it’s anywhere between 1.7 and 1.75. Bon apatite! Speaking of Buzz, Sustain-A-Buzz at the Mish this Sunday with the first (hopefully) annual Sustain-A-Bash! This fundraiser for the Sustainable Living Fair is Sunday 4pm-8pm and will feature Futaba, Acidophiles and Frogs Gone Fishing [...]

Late season LOVE!  Here are a couple shots from earlier today on the narrows.  Git’ the last drips! Photo 1 by Mike Konschnik and Photo 2 by Ian Gough.

OK, I’m back. For those of you who don’t mind low water, we’re back to 2.0. It’s wet, cool and wet. Enjoy!

It’s starting to feel like fall in the canyon, so grab your splash jacket and get some Poudre while you still can!

Unless we get a water event or something changes, this will most likely be my last transmission for the 2011 Season. It has been great. Looking forward to seeing you all next season! Let it SNOW!

Bridges, Bridges, Lunch, Bridges, Bridges, Beer

It might be dropping a little bit, but it’s August 24 and it’s not .8 yet! It looks like the Joe Wright release stopped yesterday, which might be responsible for the decline.

John, you were right, it was closer to 1.95 yesterday. Today a “true” 1.9!

And again, 13 hours later, unchanged at 1.9.

With my optimistic glasses on I’d call it 2.0-, But who can argue at ~2ft on August 21?
